The Transportation Geotechnique Committee (TGC) was given status as a specialty committee under the Soil Mechanics and Foundations Division in September 2005. The TGC's interest covers the broad areas of transportation-related geotechnique, including:

â€¢ Organize and coordinate sessions on Tranportation Geotechnique at the annual Canadian Geotechnical Conference, in collaboration with the Technical Divisions of CGS
â€¢ Act as a forum for discussion between industry, academics, and students on issues of research, education, and training
â€¢ Promote awareness of Transportation Geotechnique within the CGS, the geoscience community, and related fields
â€¢ Liaise between CGS and other transportation-related national and international organizations
â€¢ Contribute to efforts that may be beneficial to the Transportation Geotechnique community
